Others have suggested the seats are too flat to properly locate your hips in relation to the pedals.

Several hours of pummeling by the wind is tiring. I'm not sure a full day at the wheel would leave me eager to do it the next day.
Call Olthoff racing, he has seat risers that tilt the frt up a little, makes a big difference, also readjust your seat on the seat rails so it sits more straight and not to the right.
